What Is Dysport 500U — Botulinum Toxin Type A (500 Units/Vial)?
Dysport 500U is an abobotulinumtoxinA preparation (500 units per vial) supplied as a lyophilized powder for professional injection. It temporarily relaxes targeted muscles by blocking acetylcholine release, improving moderate-to-severe glabellar lines and other dynamic wrinkles in adults.
Dysport 500U is a purified botulinum toxin type A (abobotulinumtoxinA, Hall strain complex) supplied as a white lyophilized powder that dissolves to a clear, colourless solution when reconstituted with preservative-free saline. Its 500 Speywood-calibrated units are potency-assayed specifically for this product and are not interchangeable with units of any other botulinum toxin. This is the Korean wholesale channel import with English labelling. Following injection, the toxin cleaves SNAP-25 and blocks acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction, so treated muscles relax and dynamic wrinkles become visibly shallower. Cold-chain shipping (2–8°C) is required. Supplied to licensed healthcare professionals only.

Suggested Treatment Protocol
Reconstitute each 500-unit vial with preservative-free 0.9% sodium chloride, swirling gently to mix without shaking, and inject intramuscularly into the targeted muscles using a fine-gauge needle. The standard glabellar protocol uses a total of 50 units across five injection points (10 units each). The exact dose and injection pattern must be determined by the treating practitioner based on the patient's anatomy and clinical response.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Dysport 500U?
Dysport 500U is an abobotulinumtoxinA product supplied as a lyophilized powder (500 units per vial). It is injected professionally to temporarily improve moderate-to-severe glabellar lines and other dynamic wrinkles in adults, and for therapeutic indications such as cervical dystonia and limb spasticity.
How is Dysport 500U supplied and reconstituted?
Each box contains one vial of 500 units lyophilized powder. Reconstitute with 2.5 mL preservative-free 0.9% saline to obtain 20 U per 0.1 mL, swirling gently to mix without shaking, and use within 24 hours.
Are Dysport units the same as other botulinum toxin units?
No. Dysport units are Speywood-calibrated and specific to this product — they are not interchangeable with units of any other botulinum toxin product. Practitioners should follow the product's own dosing guidance.
How should Dysport 500U be stored?
Store at 2-8°C, protected from light, and do not freeze. Shelf life is 24 months unopened — shorter than some other botulinum toxins — so stock rotation matters. Once reconstituted, use within 24 hours at 2-8°C.
What are the wholesale terms?
Wholesale pricing applies by volume: 1-2 boxes $231.80/box, 3-9 boxes $220.21/box, 10-19 boxes $208.62/box, 20-29 boxes $201.67/box. For 30+ boxes, contact us for a quote.
Dysport 500U has been a solid addition to our toxin cabinet. The Speywood units take a little getting used to when dosing, but the 2.5 mL reconstitution to 20 U per 0.1 mL is straightforward and consistent.
Great results on glabellar lines — the standard 50 U protocol across five points works well. Cold-chain packaging arrived intact and the box labelling was clear.
Our clinic uses the 500-unit vial for both facial work and axillary hyperhidrosis sessions. Effects have been lasting roughly three to four months per patient.
Reliable potency and predictable results. Worth noting the 24-month shelf life — we rotate stock carefully, but that is clearly stated on the box.
